but this is probably the most comfy Glock I've ever held if not the best of all my handguns.

I am interested in the 48, the smaller grip being the main reason. The reduced capacity is not that big a deal for me, but before I switch my EDC from the 19 to the 48 I'm going to have to shoot one, the 48 will have to shoot JUST LIKE the 19 for me to make the switch.

I hope that one of the ranges near me will have one up for rental some time soon, I'm not really in a hurry, but I am interested...

------------------------------------------------------------Tomorrow's battle is won during today's practice.

Well I am a Glock owner now. Never have held one beforeBought a used G17 gen 2, came with a Glock barrel, Lone Wolf barrel, 2 magazines ( Glock one is 10 rounds, other a PMag, 15 rounds), red fiber optic from sight. Has had trigger work, and abrasive tape on the grip sides. Shop owner added a LH Uncle Mikes OWB, so I have something until I decide what I want for a holster. I also bought a 15 Rd. Glock mag. Tried multiple ones, new and used in the shop, and this one had the best trigger to me. Wanted a full size since I traded my BPH, many years ago. Shop owner carries one, and he will go to his range with me to familiarize me. His wife, both instructors, will work with my wife and her old CA police bulldog. She carries a newer CA.The grip, and general feel, really suited me, so I did the deal. At this time I do not intend to CCW the Glock, having a XDs 9 mm, and multiple .38 specials for that. Should work well for a general handgun around the house and property. Anything I need to know, or think about, beyond more magazines, and more ammo, so I keep my hoard up to standards.

Well, Para, it took me nearly ten years from your prophecy but I did buy my first, a new Glock 19 Gen4 today on 1-26-2019. I like it and I admit it. Well, 2-6-2019, better add a Glock 17 Gen4 to the list.

Great, now I gotta go get one

Well I didn't actually BUY a Glock, but. Years ago I traded a Beretta Centurion in roughish shaped for a like new Glock 23. I am not a 40 guy so it languished in the safe for years. I decided to turn it into a 19 and scratch my RMR itch at the same time. I have an RMR on a MP9 CORE but I never warmed up to the gun itself. So I found some deals over the holidays and waited for all the packages to arrive. Last one came yesterday. A Gunslingers Armory 19 slide with a RMR cut. It has some cuts and stuff that aren't exactly my thing but it has ZERO slide markings. Very clean. Overall I like it a lot. I bought another Overwatch Precision trigger on sale because they discontinued the color (blue), Magpul magwell (jury still out on this one), all OEM Glock internals, Glock 19 barrel, OP Have Blue sights, Vickers Tactical mag release and slide release which are on all my Glocks. Oh yea, fancy dimpled ZEV back plate 'cause it's pretty. lol

Had to file down the front overlap of the rear Have Blue sight. It went over the plate cover so a judicious and slow file work took care of that easy enough. If it wasn't 10 degrees out right now I might have included a range report. I will try a picture though.

Only took me slightly more than a month, but finally put 240 rounds through my 26 today. Brought my Ruger PCC, but forgot to bring tools to adjust sights and RDS. Put 10 rounds through it and it didn't even hit paper, so I put it away... Anywho, I think the 26 is a fun little gun. Definitely need some trigger time, as my 10 yard target grouping wasn't what I expected of myself, but I really like this thing. I only put Trijicon night sights and a talon grip wrap on it, and good to go. I did notice my trigger finger getting a little sore by the end of it, and I got pinched a couple times by the Pearce extensions. No big deal though. Got hit in the forehead quite a bit with brass, and had brass landing on my shoulders and upper arms, some of which did not roll off. I was wearing a sweater, so it didn't burn luckily. All in all, it was a good day.
